Title: Fruit Truffles-Low-Cal
Categories: Cookies
Yield: 10 servings
2 Bananas
1/2 md Orange; juice only
Orange; grated rind only
1 1/4 c Ground almonds
1/4 c Blanched almonds
1 1/4 tb Plain cocoa
Chop the bananas into a large bowl and using a potato masher, mash them
until they are smooth. Mix in the orange juice and rind. Stir in the
ground almonds, mixing well to blend evenly. Place the mixture in a
refrigerator and chill for approximately 30 minutes.
Using a sharp knife, finely chop the blanched almonds into small
pieces. Mix the chopped almonds into the cocoa powder, and place on a flat
plate. Remove the banana mixture from the refrigerator, and divide into 10
portions. Roll each portion into a small ball, using lightly floured hands.
Roll each ball into the cocoa and almond mixture, rolling each one evenly
to give a good coating. Press gently before placing into a small paper
cases, and chilling once again.
Author's Notes: Variation: Use walnuts in place of almonds Tips: Do not
keep for long after they have been made, or the banana will go brown and
wet. Source: Healthy Cooking Sugar Free by Gallery Books
